Next to the church is a small cemetery of the Franciscan Fathers.
To the left of the gate is a memorial to both world wars.
Next to a kneeling praying Jesus hangs a memorial plaque for the Franciscans who did not survive the wars:
"Sacrifice of the First World War 1914 – 1918"
Fallen and missing", followed by 15 names with country and date of death.

"Sacrifice of the Second World War 1939 – 1945
Fallen", followed by 24 names with country and date of death.
"Missing", followed by 9 names with country and date of death.
